My mother



"This does not diminish you in any way, my love."
That was my mother's response to The News.

  2. Yes, she's right. As you say, tons of people get laid off usually for no reason to do with performance. I wish the word "fired" wasn't used here to describe any sort of job loss. In the UK (where I'm from) we say "made redundant" to describe a lay off, and although it sounds a bit depressing, it makes the distinction between being let go and being fired because of an infraction.
    And your friend is right too. Give yourself time to think - and a door will open.

  3. I love how she is so elegant and wise, and yet sweet at the same time. What a wonderful thing to say.

    I really believe that this will be a turning point for you the way it was for me, my dear friend. You are literally so good you are award-winning, I am sure you will find something much better. This particular cloud of doom has been stalking you for a while, who needs that? :)

  9. Your mother, in addition to being beautiful, is right. I am so very sorry this happened to you but I know better things will come your way. Hugs...

  10. Sending love to you, Angella -- your Mum is right. How dignified and beautiful she is, as you are and, too, the line of women in your family. Take best care.

  11. I just could cry. I've been away from the internet and am afraid of misreading this, but it seems this unexpected turn has opened up new possibilities for greater happiness? I so hope it has, and continues to do so. I believe it will.
